How to photograph cars correctly
Today's Photoshop programs can correct a lot of visual defects but the fact remains that a well composed photo is always best. Here are some tips to help you take a excellent photo of your car.
FinDon't worry too much about the background.
We can remove most all unwanted background. So whether your at the Grand Canyon or City Dump does not much matter.
Things to avoid if possible
Do not take the photos while parked on the grass. The green reflects up onto the side panels and bumpers. Do not park under a tree. Sun glare is our worst enemy. Take the pictures on a cloudy day or at dusk/dawn.
Use different angles
Don't be afraid to take some shots laying on the ground or standing on a ladder. Different angles can produce some very nice shots.
Use a good digital camera.
This is a no brainer but I thought include it anyway. Set the camera so that it will take the highest quality possible.
Wash your car
Wash your car, clean it's windows, shine the tires. You get the idea.
Pick the right time of day to take your photo
Don't photograph you car when the sun is directly overhead, this will wash out the color and create unwanted glare. The best time is at sunup or sundown.
Lights on
Try turning your Parking lights on you would be surprised what a different it may make.
